A curious Gray Jay came by to visit as I ate lunch ashore at Hosmer Lake in the Oregon Cascades.
Receiving no treats it flitted over to perch on the kayak mast to perhaps see if there was anything in the bilges...

Another photo from yesterday's grueling hike with @shab00pie.bsky.social. We figured out the peaks are most likely 3 Sisters, Mt. Bachelor and Diamond Peak, seen from the summit of Spencer's Butte.

Three big ol' rocks for the price of one.
Smith Rock in Central Oregon with the Cascade peaks of South Sister and Broken Top in the distance.

Mt. Jefferson was BRAGGING yesterday! I came out of two miles of boring canopy and it showed up! (Rimrock Trail in the Roaring River Wilderness).

Marion Lake in the forefront with Three Finger Jack (in the #oregoncascades) poking up for views. Backpacked here with my oldest son in early June.

Experience the awe-inspiring beauty of Crater Lake, a natural wonder nestled in the heart of the Cascades.

Great views of North Sister, a surprised (and cute) Mountain Horned Lizard, more of the Oregon Cascades and one of the Matthieu Lakes on a backpack trip with my youngest last summer.
Cant wait to get back out there 😊

When I lived in the Portland, Oregon area one of my favorite day trips was to go to Trillium Lake and hike around the lake. These are a few pictures that I took from there in August 2004.
